Portland delights

We drove up to Oregon this weekend for Maya's wedding in Salem and first spent a quick less-than-24-hours in Portland (about 7.5 hours from Arcata), doing the Oregon usual-- eating and shopping.

We hit up the famous Food Carts at 9th and Alder.

  

Here's the shopping mall ice rink where we think Tonya Harding practiced...

I spent a leisurely hour or so at Powell's books but refrained from purchasing anything.

How could we miss Voodoo Doughnut?  (we went to the less-crowded, non-downtown location)

Dinner: Rockin' crab crawfish, etc. MMM!

We stayed at a cute "bohemian basement" via Airbnb...

 

... and then headed south to Salem.
